A huge congratulations to Ang Lee, who took home the trophy for Best Director for Life of Pi last night at the 85th Academy Awards: Oscars 2013: Ang Lee wins best director for 'Life of Pi'
Besting a category that included competition from the likes of Steven Spielberg, the decorated Taiwanese filmmaker was as gracious as ever, thanking "Movie God." He was all smiles, raising his hands as walked to the stage and looking just as surprised as anyone over the win.
Coincidentally, the last time Lee won the Oscar for Best Director, back in 2006 for Brokeback Mountain, he was up against Spielberg then too. Better luck next time, Steven.
Here's video of Mr. Lee's acceptance speech:
